Hooray! This project is fully funded

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

My 26 kindergarteners need supplies to enhance our learning centers like dry erase markers and sheets, magnets numbers, short vowels games, hula hoops, and cushion seats. The hands-on short vowel games and sight words will be used in our reading centers. The magnetic numbers will be used by both the teacher to model with students and for math centers. The dry erase supplies will be used for independent literacy, writing and math centers. The hula hoops wand cushion seat will be used by students for sounding out words, counting, and number addition and subtraction movement games.
